VW is getting ready to finally offer a new generation of the big Atlas SUV in the US. After over almost 10 years! We apparently will be seeing it at the New York Auto Show in a couple of months.

Toyota has just unveiled the all-new Highlander and it is a complete reset for the good old Toyota SUV. It is now a brand new 3 row EV. And Toyota is gutsy enough to just call it Highlander. And not Hoghlander EV or even BZ something. Which I think is a great move. However, it… Continue reading The 2027 Toyota Highlander looks familiar.

Its full name is VW Tiguan ePro, and it is only available in China so far. It is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and paired with a 22 kWh battery. This setup allows for an EV-only range of 73 miles on the Chinese test cycle. Even after adjusting for real-world conditions. That would likely… Continue reading 2027 VW Tiguan ePro PHEV.

The VW ID.4 has already received a surprisingly long list of updates for the 2025 model year.

I just got a new Nissan Frontier to test drive for a week. The version I am driving is the Pro-4X. Which is far from being the base model. As it starts at around $42,000. While the basic Frontier S is around $10,000 less. As you can see, there are a lot of different versions… Continue reading Nissan Frontier Test Drive coming up.

“Big energy. Bigger versatility. A new adventure starts February 10th. #LetsGoPlaces”. And that all we officially know about the all new Toyota 3 row SUV. Except that it will be an EV built in the US. The first one of two new 3 row EV models for North America. Despite a series of delays that… Continue reading New 2027 Toyota 3 row EV interior.

The Japanese illustration above shows what the next generation of the Toyota Harrier could look like. The current model is familiar to U.S. buyers, as it was sold here as the Toyota Venza.

Here is a short video I shot a while ago at the Los Angeles Auto Show. Where Scout had quite a display. Showing off their upcoming Terra pickup and Traveler SUV. They had an old Traveler from the early 1970s there, and you could tell how huge the new ones are when compared to the… Continue reading 2028 Scout Traveler & Terra video.

The spy shot above gives us an early look at what appears to be the all-new 2027 Honda HR-V. However, this prototype is the European-market HR-V (current generation shown in the bottom photo). Which is a very different vehicle from the one currently sold in North America. Honda has been running two distinct HR-Vs for… Continue reading 2027 Honda HR-V.

We were all wondering when the axe would fall on Tesla‘s oldest models; now we know. The last Tesla Model S or X will be produced by the end of the next quarter. The real reason is obvious: they’re old, and sales are down. Down to around 50,000 for both models combined. Which is actually… Continue reading Musk kills the Tesla Model S & X.

It seems Volvo has its eye on the Cadillac Escalade. Well, at least the Mercedes GLS. Something bigger and more expensive than the current EX90. And especially, something with a more impressive profit margin. The Mercedes GLS routinely sells over 20,000 units a year in the US. The larger Mercedes SUV starts at over $90,000.… Continue reading 2028 Volvo EX100 a real possibility.

Something designed to compete directly with the Ford Maverick. Or even a production version of the EPU concept Toyota showed back in 2023.… Continue reading All-new Toyota model for 2027.

The Jeepster was an interesting chapter in Jeep history. It debuted in 1948, at a time when Willys still owned the brand. And it represented something genuinely new for Jeep. Until then, Jeep was almost entirely associated with military vehicles and utilitarian machines. The Jeepster was different. It was longer, wider, and more comfortable. And… Continue reading Should Jeep offer a new Jeepster?

Just a few weeks ago, when Chevrolet introduced the revised 2027 Bolt, GM officially mentioned, “It will begin shipping to customers early next year and will be a limited run model”.
